Mellow Yellow Monday #189 - Yellow Flowers in Jaipur Monsoons

We are finally having monsoon rainfall in Jaipur - sometimes, the drops hit theground with such a vengeance, it's a wonder anything is left standing.These pretty little yellow flowers ( don't know their name ), in front of my room,have survived quite well

Hi Carmen! It has been a long absence, but things have been a bit hard: father 95, mother almost 91 doing radiotherapy, wife broke right elbow and I’m consuming some much needed holidays to take care of all this...

Lovely shots!! even with yellow... ;)

As far as Blogtrotter Two is concerned, it seems nobody is interested in St. Kitts, so maybe I should try something else. Anyhow, enjoy and have a great week or better a vacation, if still available!!!

About Me

My 73rd birthday was Oct 3! I am the mother of three terrific sons - Jeremy is 33, Alex is 35, Shawn is 47. I have been blessed with 2 precious grandchildren and two grandsons. My daughter-in-love,
Laura, is wonderful.. I am happily divorced. I lost my position of 21 years as a forensic nurse for the city and county of San Francisco in a massive wave of budget cuts ( Feb 2009 )...so I have retired ( which makes me sad! ). Forensic nursing had been the passion of my life and has introduced me to some outstanding people all over the world. I wish I were the curvy, slim creature of my youth - both of my youngest sons have been trying to help me get back to some semblance of that but it seems pretty remote..though I have lost 50 pounds in the past few years. ..nonetheless, I am still enjoying life and will continue to do so until my last breath!!
Did my 88th cruise ( most of them have been in the last 20 years ) - have been on ships all over the world - though I certainly enjoy travel by other means.
Since Dec 2011, I have spent nearly 3 years in India, a country I have grown to love and can afford on a retiree's income!

Take a break in your busy day and visit for awhile!

I'm a recently retired forensic nurse, longing for a little company so do stop by! After nearly 50 years in nursing, I am trying to stay busy with writing, photography, travel, myriad interests and meeting folks like you!
